I've grown bored with all the cds and songs on my mp3 player. I'm looking for suggestions on things to listen too. I don't care if it's new or old and I have a wide variety of music i like (classic rock, metal -as long as it isn't just arbitrary yelling, there has to be some actually singing-, rap, just about anything.


Any suggestions???

Jay-Z's new album Death of the autotune.
Sean Kingston is great.
Duffy (a girl who has the most amazing voice) sings old standards in a new way.
Devil makes three. ( a great new Bluegrass band that rocks).
Neptunes any album
Whipsaws. A blues/rocks/booze/slide guitar type band from Alaska.
36 crazyfist, a metal band from Alaska.

That's it off the top of my head. More to come I'm sure.

Hah! I came here to say "CLUTCH!"

I've also enjoyed what I've been finding from a group called Beast out of Montreal. Kind of a punk/funk rock.

Will be checking them out soon. Thanks!

I'd also recommend Fu Manchu (rock), Galactic (funk), Morphine (alternative rock w/ sax), and A Tribe Called Quest (most modern hip hop I'll listen to)

Hey he asked for new music he hadn't heard before. So I put in band most people probally haven't heard of before. (well Jay-Z and Kingston are famous).




AND.....all the music on Jay-Z's new album was done with actual instruments. Very cool.

I saw AIC at House of Blues last month. They were awesome. William Duvall sounds really good. He actually sounds a lot like Layne...


Joe Thomas made Justin Timberlake change his name. He didn't want wusses to have the same initials...

If you haven't heard the Travelling Wilbury's i highly recomend their album, I especially like end of the line. I've just started getting into Asher Roth as well (he's known for "I love college" but he also did a mixtape cd where he inversed his own lyrics into other tracks which is my favorite album at the moment.

On a personal note, my little brothers just got Rockband: The Beatles, and i completely forgot exactly how many great songs they made over the years.

I've been going through the same thing and "discovered" a band called Eels that I don't know how I missed during the 90s. I saw a special on PBS about the band's creator Mark Everett.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eels_(band)

A band called "Mother Love Bone" is also worth a listen if you like Pearl Jam. The founders of Pearl Jam had this band prior to Pearl Jams existence.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mother_Love_Bone

I've been using Wiki to find ties to bands I like to see what they did prior (or after).

Glass Houses, a Billy Joel album.

Best songs IMO: All For Leyna, Close to the Borderline, You May be Right, Sleepin' With the Television On, Still Rock 'n Roll To Me.

If you don't know this album, give it a try. Can't guarantee you'll like it, of course.

I just picked up the new 3 Days Grace and Chickenfoot. (with Sammy Hagar, Joe Satriani, Michael Anthony, and Chad Smith from the Red Hot Chili Peppers)

Give me a few days and I'll have a better idea how good they are. lol

Ha, that's probably the only GWAR tune that would be acceptable on this board. "Sad whale, baby"

Check out The Earth Is Not A Cold, Dead Place by Explosions in the Sky. If you've seen "Friday Night Lights" you'll recognize the music.

King, have you heard anything from the new AIC album? If not, you might be pleasantly surprised. I was of the same mindset when I first heard they reformed and were working on new album, but this thing is awesome. Also, guitarist/songwriter Jerry Cantrell sings almost every song and William Duvalls' voice blends really well with his to create those signature AIC vocal harmonies that he and Layne did so well together. Check out the song "Black Gives Way To Blue" it is a touching tribute to Layne and they managed to get Elton John to play piano on it.

He asked for something different and I gave, within the limits of the board. Certainly, good GWAR will have to be found outside this board, but it is great music IMHO. Personally, I feel that AtzingerB should go the a GWAR concert in a white t-shirt, and see what he returns with.

Do they still do Cleveland every Halloween?

Clutch is a SOLID choice.

If you like Clutch, check out...

Orange Goblin

In the metal vein...

Ensiferum. It's not yelling. They classify themselves as Heroic Folk Metal. I think their music is fun. Kinda has that Norsemen feel and sound. Not overly hard, some of it can be a little cheesely lyrically, but it's good stuff.

Here are a couple songs to get you started:

Victory Song
Into Battle
Finnish Medley

Why? It was more Cantrell's band than Stayley's and Cantrell was way more responsible for the sound (in their harmonizing) than most people think. What was he supposed to do? Just stop making music? It's way different than if Nirvana continued on without Cobain...

Unless you saw Cantrell live on a solo tour I don't think people realize how much he is the band....

Thanks, I will check it out. I have just been resistant to AIC without L Staley to this point. I guess I will break down eventually and give it a try.

Well,thats your opinion and that is fine but Nirvana without Cobain is exactly what my mindset has been concerning AIC without Staley.

Like I told Pitcrew, I will check it out.
